3. 03Economy, Income and LumberHow income is paid, why idle gold is a mistake, the progressive tax, and what lumber and legendary crystals are for.
4. 04Waves and SyncingSpawn cycles, syncing buildings so their troops leave as a wave, pausing production, and choosing where troops spawn with the flag.
5. 05The RescueYour one emergency strike per match: what it hits, when it pays off, and why saving it can also win the game.
6. 06Upgrades and Building ControlsThe golden arrow, what an upgrade really changes, and every command you can give a selected building.
7. 07Shop, Perks and CagesWhat the shop sells and when it's worth it, how perks trade a bonus for a drawback, and how cages keep troops at home.
